    I used to be so unadventurous - never ventured outside the realms of Cheddar! Now I'm a sucker for a nice chunk of Brie. Not so keen on Camembert generally - smelly cheeses are a bit too much for me.

    Not ever tried Roquefort!
    If you are untrained in the art of smelly blue cheeses, Roquefort is an awful lot like Stilton.

    Haha! So am I unlikely to like it if I don't go much for smelly cheese?

    It's not quite a strong. Four cheese pizza should have a blue cheese as one of the four. They often use roquefort because it is slightly less strong than others, such as Stilton. it's worth a try, but try a small sample rather than get a large block of it.

    Vegetarians can eat cheese... Vegans don't tend to...

    Certain cheeses incorporate the use of animal rennet, which essentially makes it non vegetarian. Parmesan is one fo these such cheeses.

    So I can't eat Parmesan for that reason.

    I'm not that much, I used to have it occasionally when I wasn't a vegetarian and I only used it (if ever) as a condiment for spagbol or pasta dishes.

    I'm more annoyed I'm the only Jarlsberg lover. Maybe my future partner will be a jarlsberger :moon:

    If I could, I would send you the leftover wraped Stilton from the cheese selection.
